1	'''Basic Trope''': An enemy takes you back to the beginning of the level instead of killing you.
2	* '''Straight''': A mook grabs Bob and carries him out of the BigBad's castle.
3	* '''Exaggerated''': The mook carries Bob from TheVeryDefinitelyFinalDungeon to the [[FirstTown start of the game]].
4	* '''Downplayed''': The mook just takes Bob back to the last SavePoint.
5	* '''Justified''':
6	** The mook knows that if he directly fought Bob, he'd lose.
7	** The mook is a bouncer.
8	** Bob isn't allowed in the area, but the mook doesn't have authority to kill him, leading to a stealth sequence where the player has to avoid the MookBouncer to progress.
9	* '''Inverted''':
10	** Bob grabs the mook and carries him out of the castle.
11	** The mook carries Bob to the BigBad's throne room.
12	* '''Subverted''':
13	** The mook drops Bob.
14	** Alternatively, Bob is too heavy for the mook to carry, causing the mook to give up and leave.
15	* '''Double Subverted''':
16	** The mook realizes he's not carrying Bob, and quickly returns to grab him.
17	** He returns, with friends.
18	* '''Parodied''': The mook carries Bob back to the womb and Bob needs to replay his entire life.
19	* '''Zig Zagged''': ???
20	* '''Averted''': All the mooks in the castle try to kill Bob.

22	* '''Lampshaded''': "These mooks will never kill you, so don't bother bringing any potions!"
23	* '''Invoked''': A GenreSavvy Character sets up a situation where the trope can occur.
24	* '''Exploited''': After defeating the LoadBearingBoss, Bob uses the Mook Bouncers to quickly escape the collapsing castle.
25	* '''Defied''': The mook tries to grab Bob, only for Bob to shoot him.
26	* '''Discussed''': "Why don't these mooks just kill us?"
27	* '''Discussed''': ???
28	* '''Conversed''': ???
29	* '''Deconstructed''': The mook is fired and/or executed by the BigBad for throwing Bob out of the castle instead of simply killing him.
30	* '''Reconstructed''': Then mooks carry him out of the level.
31	* '''Played For Laughs''': The mooks kick anything they touch out of the level, including each other, resulting in a huge wall of mooks at the entrance that prevents Bob from entering.
32	* '''Played For Drama''': Bob was pulled out away from his dying sister Alice who desperately need medicine from him.
